Fuel pump (they have coils too). Sounds like a vapor lock problem.

After the running problem I ordered a new Petronix from Moss ($138.00 w/
shipping) and it came yesterday. Before I tackled the repair I tried to
start the car again and it started right up. I let it run for a while and
after it got up to temperature for a while it died! Let cool off and tried
it again with the same results. So, I assume that the problem is not the
Petronix. I have checked all the wiring and connectors. I double checked the
rotor and can see no wear. Could it be the coil? Maybe it is shorting out
when it gets hot? Thanks, JL
